I sometimes need to use `Q' command.  I prefer
`dired-do-query-replace-regexp', because it acepts Emacs regexp syntaxis.

It's confusing that '% g' handles Emacs regexp but `Q' or `A' use
a different one: IMO, it's more natural if we bind to keys those
commands accepting the native regexp syntaxis.
